Sorry but I have to disagree because even if you are a single parent .. its doesn't mean that your life is over. Now you do need to be smart about dating and make sure that you don't introduce the kids to your partner until you have a committed relationship.

Parading various partners and having a different one every week is confusing to the kids and I agree with you on that point.

I am a single mom myself and my children are my first priority in everyhting I do. I make sure that my dateing life and my parental life are seperated. My children have been through hell and back again so when I feel like I have met the one I want to spend the rest of my life with then I will bring him into their lives. It is hard to do but well worth it in the long run. Hang in there and enjoy the site.

not all of us are the same

its not fair for kids to live with one parent and visit the other your right but thats life and life goes on i take my res. as a parent first and then date but it does help sometimes to have an adult to converse with and hang otu with as long as your child is taken care of you can have a life

hhm... I checked your profile and it states that you have no kids.... so does that mean when you get married and have children that "if" and I say "if" your marriage ended in divorce that you would not date until the kids were say for example 17 or 18 years old???????

Until you have walked in the shoes... and lived the life.... take care to be considerate of others.

Well it is a sad fact that "some" parents don't put their kids first, I have no doubt that you have seen alot more the "bad" that happens in the world then most people...... but also consider that you don't see the success stories because they don't come walking through your doors.

I started out when I divorced...having the kids meet the first two guys that I had a long term relationship with. Not anymore!! If I meet someone and they becaome the one and only person that I will spend my life with..THAT is when they will meet him and get to know him. WHY?? Because my youngest daughter said to me once "why dont your boyfriends want you anymore..once they meet us? They must not like us!" Nuff said..no more of the meeting men and introducing them to my children right off the bat...I WILL not allow even ONE of my children to feel inferior because my relationships go sour! NOW..I will say that I see nothing wrong with dating and living my life. I am an older dating single lady..my children are 13 16 and 17 (almost 18). In a few short years they will be totally out on their own and I want a life for me when that empty next syndrome takes its toll. I just wont expose them to the relationship until I know for sure that its a forever relationship!
